Corkwood has been operating for many years in the world of knitwear design but we are also craft enthusiasts and we sell products that we both make and use ourselves. Our passion is to develop skills that are useful to anyone interested in refashioning and remodelling unwanted clothing and sometimes even furniture. We are sewers, Knitters, dyers, woodworkers and general creators. We run machines that help us recycle and repurpose factory deadstock and as much as we love selling our products, we also want to share with everyone the new things we have been learning.
Harvesting Fabric from Old Clothes - A recycling project
This is a quick video to show you our approach to recycling fabric and trimmings from worn-out garments into reusable material. We've repurposed an old coat acquired from a boot fair, turning it into usable waterproof fabric for our upcycled dog coat project.
